On July 29th local time, South Korean opposition party members and representatives of civic groups went to Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan to have discussions with local members of parliament and civic representatives. Japanese and South Korean attendees strongly oppose the Japanese government's push to discharge contaminated water from Fukushima into the sea.

Korean fishing group representative Kim Kyung fu: If nuclear contaminated water is a good thing, it should be used as water for swimming pools, people's drinking water, or agricultural water. Why do we have to discharge it into the sea? We will work closely with Japanese citizen groups and do our best to take all measures to prevent nuclear contaminated water from being discharged into the sea before it is released.

Japanese citizen group member Kenzo Matsumoto: The radioactive substances in the contaminated water generated by the Fukushima nuclear accident cannot be completely removed through multi nuclide removal equipment. If a large amount is discharged into the sea in the future, not only will we be affected, but it will also pollute the oceans of the world. We will never allow this. We deeply regret the attitude of the Japanese government, and we must strive to convey the opposing voices to the government.

Japanese citizen group member Inoue Nishihiro: If nuclear contaminated water is continuously discharged for fifty, sixty, or even hundreds of years, no one knows what kind of impact it will have on the environment. If a large amount of nuclear contaminated water is discharged into the sea, it cannot be recycled. We hope that the Japanese government can suspend the discharge plan and reconsider other methods.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
